Like I said elsewhere - I do not find it appropriate to have some
automated system that tries to access my systems regularly when they do
not have access rights. It does cause entries in the system logs about
failed access attempts. Please don't do that.

Hi,
I have been working on and off on a DCL script to dump HECnet node
statuses into HTML files (just as a way to brush up DCL skills). Many of
you have done this in the past, it is a fun thing to do.
Unfortunately I did not realize the resulting floods of log entries on
your systems may not be appropriate. Please let me know if it is not
acceptable to run my script once a week moving forward.
FYI - the script as of now is at
https://gist.github.com/tuklusan/4666755385686ebaeb4eb1aa0e9f4a5c, and
the results are at

Thank you for keeping the DECnet fire burning. Best wishes for the
festive season.
